STONE JUG.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 312,180, dated February 10, 1885. Application tiled November 5, 1884. (No model.)

T all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JEFFERSON BRAY BRACKETT, of Leeds Junction, in the county of Androscoggin, of the State of Maine, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Stone Jugs; and I do hereby declare the same i as provided with two nozzles or noses, b c, ar-

ranged eccentrically relative to its axis, and connected by a handle, d, which extends from one to the other of such nozzles, which serve as supports for the handle, and by it are supported or strengthened. These nozzles are to enable a liquid to be poured from thejug out of either, and air at the same time to pass into the jug through the other, or to allow liquid to be supplied to the jug through one and air to escape from it through the other of them.

Vith my improved jug a liquid can be discharged from it in a smooth stream, not impeded by air rushing into the dischargingnozzle, or it can be filled or supplied with liquid without air at the time being discharged from the nozzle into which the liquid is poured. The filling of it or the discharge of it can be accomplished with much greater rapidity than would be the case were it to have but one nozzle, as is usual with other stone jugs.

The stand B is composed of two standards, e c, and two curved connection bars or girts,

f f. These bars or girts curve inwardtogirt at each'end is provided with a dovetailed tongue, g, to entera corresponding groove, h, in the next adjacent standard.

A jug constructed as shown can be tipped opposite ways for discharging a liquid from it, which renders it very convenient at times.

I claim as a new or improved article of manufactured l. A stone jug provided'with truunions extending from opposite sides of its body, a nozzle projecting upward from such body, and a handle to extend from such nozzle.

2. A stone jug provided with trunnions projecting from opposite sides ot' its body, and with two nozzles extending upward from such body, as represented.

3. Astone jug provided with truuuions projectng from opposite sides of its body, and with two nozzles extending upward from such body, and connected by a handle arranged between them, as set forth.

4. The jug provided with the trunnions, handle, nozzle, and Vent, in combination with the stand, having not only bearings for supporting the trunnions, but girts curved inward, as and for the purpose as set forth.
